modest amount of money can go a long way when it's invested in highly profitable industry leaders with sustained competitive advantages.","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Perspective is everything on Wall Street. Over the past three and a half years, Wall Street's major stock indexes have fluctuated between bear and bull markets. If you're a short-term trader, making money has been exceptionally challenging.</p><p>But it's a completely different story if you have a long-term mindset. Even though all three major stock indexes are well below their record-closing highs from nearly two years ago, history shows that time eventually heals all wounds (at least for the major indexes). It means every sizable decline in the stock market represents a buying opportunity for long-term investors with cash in hand.</p><p>One of the best aspects of putting your money to work on Wall Street is that previous barriers to entry for everyday investors have been torn down by most online brokerages. Both minimum deposit requirements and commission fees for buy-and-sell transactions on major U.S. stock exchanges have been done away with by most online brokers. This means any amount of money -- even $1,000 -- can be the perfect amount to invest.</p><p>If you have $1,000 that's ready to be put to work and are positive you won't need this cash to pay bills or cover the cost of an emergency, the following three stocks stand out as no-brainer buys right now.</p><h2 id=\"id_2589371165\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/BRK.A\">Berkshire Hathaway</a></h2><p>The first winning stock you can confidently buy with $1,000 right now is Berkshire Hathaway, the conglomerate run by billionaire CEO Warren Buffett. Note that I'm specifically referring to the B Class shares (BRK.B), since a single A Class share (BRK.A) will set you back more than $531,000!</p><p>What Berkshire Hathaway brings to the table for long-term investors is significant outperformance. Keeping in mind that past performance is no guarantee of future results, Berkshire's Class A shares -- the Class B shares didn't come into existence until 1996 -- have averaged a 19.8% annualized gain since the mid-1960s, double the annualized total return, including dividends, of the benchmark S&P 500 over the same timeline.</p><p>Though books have been written about Warren Buffett's investment philosophy and the reasons behind his success, I'd whittle the Oracle of Omaha's outperformance down to three factors: cyclicality, dividends, and the company's capital-return program.</p><p>Having endured more than a dozen U.S. recessions as an investor, Warren Buffett is well aware that downturns are a normal, inevitable part of the investing cycle. However, Buffett also recognizes that periods of economic expansion last substantially longer than recessions. Instead of trying to time when downturns will occur, he's angled Berkshire Hathaway's acquired assets and investment portfolio to take advantage of long-winded periods of growth. This has been done by purchasing/acquiring cyclical companies that ebb and flow with the U.S. and global economy.</p><p>A second reason for Berkshire Hathaway's long-term outperformance is Buffett's penchant for owning dividend stocks. Over the next 12 months, Berkshire is expected to collect more than $6 billion in dividend income. Aside from this income padding Berkshire's bottom line, dividend stocks have an extensive history of outperforming nonpayers over long periods.</p><p>The third factor that's helped Berkshire Hathaway crush the S&P 500 is its capital-return program. Although Buffett's company doesn't pay a dividend, he and executive vice chairman Charlie Munger have overseen the repurchase of more than $71 billion worth of Berkshire Hathaway stock since July 2018. Buying back stock is boosting Berkshire's earnings per share and making an already inexpensive stock look that much more attractive.</p><h2 id=\"id_3673421880\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/VRTX\">Vertex Pharmaceuticals</a></h2><p>A second no-brainer stock to buy with $1,000 right now is specialty biotech company Vertex Pharmaceuticals.</p><p>Before diving into the specifics of what makes Vertex such a great company, it's important to recognize the defensive nature of healthcare stocks. Regardless of external factors, such as the U.S. inflation rate or the health of the U.S. economy, patients taking lifesaving or game-changing drugs will continue to need their medication in any climate. For brand-name drug developers, it means exceptional cash flow consistency.</p><p>Where Vertex Pharmaceuticals has made its mark is treating people with cystic fibrosis (CF), a genetic disease characterized by thick mucus production that can obstruct a person's lungs and/or pancreas.</p><p>Though there's no cure for CF, Vertex has developed four generations of mutation-specific CF therapies aimed at improving lung function. The most recent, combination therapy Trikafta, received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration a full five months ahead of its scheduled review date, and is pacing close to $8.7 billion in full-year sales in 2023. </p><p>Aside from currently developing a fifth-generation CF treatment, the excitement surrounding Vertex has to do with its potential expansion into new areas of focus. For instance, gene-editing therapy exagamglogene autotemcel (exa-cel), which was developed in cooperation with CRISPR Therapeutics, has the ability to generate in excess of $1 billion in peak annual sales as a treatment for severe sickle cell disease and transfusion-dependent beta thalassemia.</p><p>Vertex Pharmaceuticals' balance sheet is another reason for long-term investors to smile. Selling novel drugs with no current competition in the CF space is leading to boatloads of operating cash flow for the company. Even with a $3 billion share repurchase program in place, the company's cash pile grew to $11.2 billion in the June-ended quarter. </p><p>A forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 21, coupled with Vertex's sustained double-digit sales growth rate, makes it a phenomenal buy.</p><h2 id=\"id_116220556\"><a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/PANW\">Palo Alto Networks</a></h2><p>The third no-brainer stock to buy with $1,000 right now is none other than cybersecurity stock Palo Alto Networks.</p><p>Similar to Vertex, Palo Alto Networks benefits from the defensive dynamics of the cybersecurity industry -- namely, hackers and robots aren't going to stop trying to steal sensitive information just because Wall Street or the U.S./global economy hits a rough patch. For businesses with an online or cloud-based presence, cybersecurity solutions have practically become a necessity.</p><p>What's really put Palo Alto Networks on the map over the past five years is the company's ongoing transformation to cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions. From the end of fiscal 2017 to the close of fiscal 2023 (the company's fiscal year ends on July 31), subscription and support sales grew from 60% of net revenue to 77% of total sales, respectively. </p><p>Although the company continues to sell physical firewall products, focusing on SaaS solutions comes with well-defined advantages. Cloud-based SaaS solutions are more effective at recognizing and responding to threats than on-premises solutions, they should improve gross retention rates, and most importantly, SaaS solutions can increase Palo Alto Networks' operating margin over time.</p><p>Another reason Palo Alto is such a winner is its ability to land big clients. While it's great to see next-generation security billings climbing, the key performance indicator that stands out is the 43% year-over-year increase in deals totaling $20 million or more in annual recurring revenue. Bigger deals explain why Palo Alto's remaining performance obligations (i.e., its backlog) have climbed to a new high of $10.6 billion.</p><p>As I've pointed out, CEO Nikesh Arora has also done a phenomenal job of adding to Palo Alto's reach with a steady diet of bolt-on acquisitions. These buyouts give Palo Alto a way to expand its product ecosystem and cross-sell its solutions to reach new businesses.</p><p>Though Palo Alto might look pricey at 36 times forward-year earnings, it offers an earnings growth rate of nearly 27% over the coming five years, per Wall Street estimates. When factoring in the company's growth potential, Palo Alto stock is still an amazing deal.</p></body></html>","source":"fool_stock","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>3 No-Brainer Stocks to Buy With $1,000 Right Now</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\n3 No-Brainer Stocks to Buy With $1,000 Right Now\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2023-10-04 23:23 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.fool.com/investing/2023/10/04/3-no-brainer-stocks-to-buy-with-1000-right-now/><strong>Motley Fool</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>Perspective is everything on Wall Street.

While it's great to see next-generation security billings climbing, the key performance indicator that stands out is the 43% year-over-year increase in deals totaling $20 million or more in annual recurring revenue. Bigger deals explain why Palo Alto's remaining performance obligations (i.e., its backlog) have climbed to a new high of $10.6 billion.As I've pointed out, CEO Nikesh Arora has also done a phenomenal job of adding to Palo Alto's reach with a steady diet of bolt-on acquisitions. These buyouts give Palo Alto a way to expand its product ecosystem and cross-sell its solutions to reach new businesses.Though Palo Alto might look pricey at 36 times forward-year earnings, it offers an earnings growth rate of nearly 27% over the coming five years, per Wall Street estimates. When factoring in the company's growth potential, Palo Alto stock is still an amazing deal.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":122,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":224024908001344,"gmtCreate":1695731249220,"gmtModify":1695731292234,"author":{"id":"4158235942941262","authorId":"4158235942941262","name":"hem1","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4158235942941262","authorIdStr":"4158235942941262"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XJO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 200(XJO.AU)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XJO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 200(XJO.AU)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$S&P/ASX 200(XJO.AU)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/224024908001344","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":289,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":223995085938856,"gmtCreate":1695723882109,"gmtModify":1695723987331,"author":{"id":"4158235942941262","authorId":"4158235942941262","name":"hem1","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4158235942941262","authorIdStr":"4158235942941262"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XKO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 300(XKO.AU)$ </a>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XKO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 300(XKO.AU)$ </a>","text":"$S&P/ASX 300(XKO.AU)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/223995085938856","repostId":"2370222526","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":116,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":222009203953904,"gmtCreate":1695228657488,"gmtModify":1695228659952,"author":{"id":"4158235942941262","authorId":"4158235942941262","name":"hem1","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4158235942941262","authorIdStr":"4158235942941262"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/TSLA\">$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":4,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/222009203953904","repostId":"1108135933","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1108135933","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1695225708,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1108135933?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-09-21 00:01","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Marketing Firm Klaviyo Spikes 23% on Its First Day of Trading","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1108135933","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Marketing firm Klaviyo open on flat on its first day of trading.Marketing and data automation provider Klaviyo Inc. priced its initial public offering above a marketed range to raise $576 million in t","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Marketing firm Klaviyo spiked 23% on its first day of trading.</p><p>Marketing and data automation provider Klaviyo Inc. priced its initial public offering above a marketed range to raise $576 million in the third major US listing in a week.</p><p style=\"text-align: start;\">Klaviyo and a group of its current investors sold 19.2 million shares Tuesday for $30 each, after marketing them for $27 to $29 each.

In instances where competitors didn't raise their prices to Amazon's level, the algorithm -- which is no longer in use -- automatically returned the item to its normal price point.</p><p>The company also used Nessie on what employees saw as a promotional spiral, where Amazon would match a discounted price from a competitor, such as Target.com, and other competitors would follow, lowering their prices. When Target ended its sale, Amazon and the other competitors would remain locked at the low price because they were still matching each other, according to former employees who worked on the algorithm and pricing team.</p><p>The algorithm helped Amazon recoup money and improve margins. The FTC's lawsuit redacted an estimate of how much it alleges the practice "extracted from American households," and it also says it helped the company generate a redacted amount of "excess profit."

In instances where competitors didn't raise their prices to Amazon's level, the algorithm -- which is no longer in use -- automatically returned the item to its normal price point.The company also used Nessie on what employees saw as a promotional spiral, where Amazon would match a discounted price from a competitor, such as Target.com, and other competitors would follow, lowering their prices. When Target ended its sale, Amazon and the other competitors would remain locked at the low price because they were still matching each other, according to former employees who worked on the algorithm and pricing team.The algorithm helped Amazon recoup money and improve margins. The FTC's lawsuit redacted an estimate of how much it alleges the practice \"extracted from American households,\" and it also says it helped the company generate a redacted amount of \"excess profit.\" Amazon made more than $1 billion in revenue through use of the algorithm, according to a person familiar with the matter.Amazon stopped using the algorithm in 2019, some of the people said. It wasn't clear why the company stopped using it.Project Nessie is one of a number of instances where the FTC's complaint contends that Amazon's monopoly power had broad impacts on raising consumer prices across retail.The FTC declined to comment on the redacted material in the complaint, but FTC spokesman Douglas Farrar said: \"We once again call on Amazon to move swiftly to remove the redactions and allow the American public to see the full scope of what we allege are their illegal monopolistic practices.\"In a statement last week, top Amazon lawyer David Zapolsky said the FTC is misunderstanding how online pricing and competition work.\"If they were successful in this lawsuit, the result would be anticompetitive and anti-consumer because we'd have to stop many of the things we do to offer and highlight low prices -- a perverse result that would be directly opposed to the goals of antitrust law,\" Zapolsky said.A central argument the FTC makes is that Amazon's power over third-party sellers on its website leads to higher prices for consumers, even those who are buying goods from a rival.Essentially, sellers feel they have no choice but to use Amazon because of its reach, consumer base and logistics prowess, but the company prohibits them from offering their products at a lower price at other retailers than on Amazon, where nearly 40% of all e-commerce in the U.S. occurs, the FTC alleges.

The Fed has not even started trying to figure out how long they need to stay at the terminal level once they reach it.\" (Addd 3:26 PM ET.)The economy has expanded at a solid pace, he said. And while the labor market has eased somewhat, labor demand still exceeds worker supply, he said.Inflation has moderated since the middle of last year and inflation expectations remain \"well-anchored.\" Still, getting inflation down to the Fed's goal of 2% \"has a long way to go.\"\"Today's FOMC is not really about whether one more hike will be a game changer at this stage of the hiking cycle. It is more about the Fed showing a resolute stance to keep going if future data suggest there is more work required. The Fed has not even started trying to figure out how long they need to stay at the terminal level once they reach it.\"3:24 PM ET: Press conference concludes. The S&P fell 0.5%, the Nasdaq -0.9%, and the Dow +0.2%, again close to session lows.3:23 PM ET: \"Overall, households are in good shape,\" however surveys show a different picture because consumers \"hate inflation,\" Powell said.3:20 PM ET: There are many explanations for why the U.S. economy has been stronger than many expected, Powell said.The neutral interest rate may be higher than thought, househod and business balance sheets were stronger than thought.3:17 PM ET: \"We're not looking for a decrease in consumer spending. It's s good thing that the economy is strong... (But) if the economy comes in stronger than expected, then that means the Fed would have to do more in monetary policy.\"3:10 PM ET: \"Energy prices are very important for the consumer... it really comes down to how persistent that increase is,\" Powell said. The Fed tends to look through short-term energy price moves because it usually isn't a good indicator of the strength of the economy, he added.3:09 PM ET: \"We don't comment on government shutdowns.\" If a government shutdown lasts long enough, the Fed wouldn't get the economic data that it normally gets, and the Fed \"will just have to deal with that.\"3:08 PM ET: The Fed is moving more slowly and carefully as the risks of overtightening become more closely balanced with the risk of doing too little, Powll said.3:05 PM ET: The S&P 500 is down 0.2%, the Nasdaq -0.5%,and the Dow +0.3%, all near seession lows.2:59 PM ET: There is a long list of external factors that could affect the economic outlook. \"There's so much uncertainty around these things,\" such as the UAW strike, but the Fed has to assess its impact on the economy, he said.2:57 PM ET: \"The time will come at some point, and I'm not saying when, when it's appropriate to cut,\" Powell said.2:53 PM ET: \"You know 'sufficiently restrictive' (rate) only when you see it.\" Right now, the Fed is at the stage where it's still trying to figure out where \"sufficiently restrictive\" is, he said.2:50 PM ET: Powell said he always thought there's a plausible path for a \"soft landing,\" but declined to call it his baseline expectation. He didn't want to \"handicap\" its likelihood.\"We've been seeing progress without higher unemployment,\" he noted.2:45 PM ET: \"We're fairly close, we think, to where we think we need to get,\" in terms of the federal funds rate.2:44 PM ET: \"We want to see that the good inflation data we've received for three months is more than just three months,\" Powell said.2:42 PM ET: The Fed wants to get more data to provide evidence that it has reached a sufficiently restrictive stance. But the central bankers aren't there yet, Powell said.2:40 PM ET: The Fed will continue to make its decisions on a meeting-by-meeting basis.Update at 2:39 PM ET: \"Real\" interest rates are higher than the neutral rate, he said, meaning the fed funds rate is in restrictive territory that would inhibit economic growth.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":173,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":224024908001344,"gmtCreate":1695731249220,"gmtModify":1695731292234,"author":{"id":"4158235942941262","authorId":"4158235942941262","name":"hem1","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4158235942941262","authorIdStr":"4158235942941262"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XJO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 200(XJO.AU)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XJO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 200(XJO.AU)$ </a><v-v data-views=\"1\"></v-v>","text":"$S&P/ASX 200(XJO.AU)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/224024908001344","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":289,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":223995085938856,"gmtCreate":1695723882109,"gmtModify":1695723987331,"author":{"id":"4158235942941262","authorId":"4158235942941262","name":"hem1","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4158235942941262","authorIdStr":"4158235942941262"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XKO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 300(XKO.AU)$ </a>","listText":"<a href=\"https://ttm.financial/S/XKO.AU\">$S&P/ASX 300(XKO.AU)$ </a>","text":"$S&P/ASX 300(XKO.AU)$","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/223995085938856","repostId":"2370222526","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2370222526","kind":"highlight","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1695722410,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2370222526?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-09-26 18:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Tesla to Face EU Anti-Subsidy Probe over China Exports","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2370222526","media":"Reuters","summary":"Sept 26 (Reuters) -

European companies have complained that the laws, which require groups to store data locally, are vague and cumbersome to observe.“If companies . . . need to have the licensing for data transfers of important data but nobody has defined what is important, it’s difficult,” he said. “Providing more clarity would already be a good starting point.”","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":116,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":230077830516736,"gmtCreate":1697209424965,"gmtModify":1697209432297,"author":{"id":"4158235942941262","authorId":"4158235942941262","name":"hem1","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"4158235942941262","authorIdStr":"4158235942941262"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","listText":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","text":"Great ariticle, would you like to share it?","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/230077830516736","repostId":"2374164376","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"2374164376","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1697209200,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2374164376?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2023-10-13 23:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alibaba's Turning Point: Stimulus And Satellite Optimism","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2374164376","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Amid China's dynamic socio-economic changes, Alibaba stands at a significant crossroads, with foreign investor skepticism putting pressure on Chinese tech stocks.Anticipation builds as rumors suggest ","content":"<html><head></head><body><ul style=\"\"><li><p>Amid China's dynamic socio-economic changes, Alibaba stands at a significant crossroads, with foreign investor skepticism putting pressure on Chinese tech stocks.</p></li><li><p>Anticipation builds as rumors suggest China's plan for a massive stimulus boost, aiming to rejuvenate infrastructure and potentially benefit giants like Alibaba.</p></li><li><p>US-based SpaceKnow's satellite imagery showcases renewed consumer confidence in China, with bustling activity in shopping malls pointing toward potential economic revival.</p></li><li><p>Despite overall market skepticism, contrarian hedge funds like Appaloosa and Third Point increased their stakes in Alibaba.</p></li></ul><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/471dc77ee53806ea76a70e38c46ad9af\" alt=\"Nikada\" title=\"Nikada\" tg-width=\"750\" tg-height=\"501\"/><span>Nikada</span></p><h2 id=\"id_846578275\">Investment Thesis</h2><p>Amid China's evolving socio-economic environment, tech behemoths like Alibaba Group Holding Limited (NYSE:BABA) find themselves at a crossroads.

This might be the spark of hope that these recent rumors of stimulus plans differ from the previous ones. However, this strategy is the ideal solution for companies like Alibaba and JD.com (JD), which thrive on consumer spending.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/bfb57674956426735aa48b4535163b97\" alt=\"bloomberg.com\" title=\"bloomberg.com\" tg-width=\"618\" tg-height=\"348\"/><span>bloomberg.com</span></p><h2 id=\"id_969857031\">Satellite Images Reveal China's Economic Pulse</h2><p>As analyzed by US-based company SpaceKnow, satellite imagery paints an <strong>optimistic picture</strong> of China's economic landscape. September saw a consistent bustle around Chinese shopping malls, continuing the trend observed in August. This active engagement is a robust indicator of renewed consumer confidence and a potential resurgence in consumer spending.</p><p>However, not all sectors are experiencing an uptick. The construction sector remains tentative despite the positive retail and shopping activity indicators. The prolonged property downturn, evident from SpaceKnow's cement production data, continues to drag on the construction industry. While cement manufacturing showed signs of recovery since June, current levels still lag behind those in 2021.</p><p>The fluctuating patterns of consumer behavior are also evident in mall activities. While the end of August witnessed a peak, there's been a subsequent slight decline. This could reflect changing consumer spending patterns or a seasonal adjustment at summer's end. Adding to this, Morning Consult's index indicates that while the consumer sentiment gains of the previous month were mostly retained in September, there was a slight dip.</p><p>For Alibaba, these indicators hold significant implications. As a behemoth in China's e-commerce space, Alibaba's fortunes are <strong>closely tied to consumer confidence</strong>. The positive trends in shopping mall activity suggest a favorable environment for retail giants. If these trends hold, Alibaba could witness a <strong>considerable boost</strong> in its e-commerce and retail sectors.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ee54e5bb5cdf5417f9eb23dd7ef7adb5\" alt=\"SpaceKnow\" title=\"SpaceKnow\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"340\"/><span>SpaceKnow</span></p><p>Further indicators of China's economic health come from broader economic metrics. The World Economics' Sales Growth Index and the Emerging Industries PMI suggest an economic momentum building up. Predictions from Goldman Sachs Group also align with this narrative, indicating a potential expansion in output for September. Larry Hu of <a href=\"https://laohu8.com/S/MQG.AU\">Macquarie</a> Group further reinforces the optimism, identifying three significant tailwinds supporting China's economic recovery: a recent shift in fiscal policy, stabilization in exports, and adjustments in property strategies.</p><p>However, the market isn't without its challenges. The lingering concerns over the property sector and the observed fluctuations in mall activity necessitate a strategic approach from Alibaba. The company must leverage positive economic indicators while staying agile to navigate potential market pitfalls.</p><p>Although slower at 3% to 5%, China's growth rate is expected to surge in areas that align with Beijing's priorities, such as technology and green transition industries. The ongoing US-China geopolitical tensions, especially US sanctions limiting China's access to vital technologies, are prompting Beijing to invest more in electric vehicles, semiconductor chips, and computers.</p><h2 id=\"id_1122644789\">Unpacking the Numbers for a Promising Upswing</h2><p>Mallari-D'Auria believes that while Alibaba's valuations might not reach their pre-crackdown highs, they can still experience significant growth if consumer spending and confidence increase.</p><p>In absolute valuation, several key indicators highlight a substantial undervaluation. The forward P/E non-GAAP ratio, compared to the 5-year historical average, reveals an undervaluation of around ~49%. Likewise, the forward enterprise value to sales ratio indicates an undervaluation of ~65% relative to the historical average over the same period.</p><p>Other essential metrics reinforce this trend: forward enterprise value to EBIT shows a significant undervaluation of ~62%, forward price to sales indicates a sizable undervaluation of ~63%, and forward price to book reflects an undervaluation of ~57%, all in comparison to the 5-year historical averages.</p><p>Conversely, when assessed in the context of relative valuation measures, the situation becomes more nuanced. The forward P/E Non-GAAP, Enterprise Value to EBIT, and Price to Book ratios indicate undervaluation of ~29%, ~19%, and ~40%, respectively, compared to the sector median. In contrast, other metrics employed earlier indicate overvaluation.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e125a6e23eda53fe0b369ccbaba92154\" alt=\"Author (seekingalpha.com)\" title=\"Author (seekingalpha.com)\" tg-width=\"869\" tg-height=\"468\"/><span>Author (seekingalpha.com)</span></p><h2 id=\"id_3505397590\">Contrarians: Key Hedge Funds Increased BABA Stakes</h2><p>In 2023, the overall trend of hedge funds holding positions in BABA remained relatively stable. Not surprisingly, in Q2 2023, some hedge funds reduced their exposure to Chinese companies based on weak trends in the economic recovery in China and elevated geopolitical tensions. Among these adversities, Alibaba is at the center of the tornado.</p><p>The number of hedge funds with <strong>over 5%</strong> of their portfolio stakes in Alibaba was reduced by 52% during the quarter. At the same time, the number of hedge funds with Alibaba among their top 50 positions was reduced by 17% during the same period.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/7b0449f2660971e0e5f1f05f1ceddcd3\" alt=\"whalewisdom.com\" title=\"whalewisdom.com\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"286\"/><span>whalewisdom.com</span></p><p>Despite strong fundamentals, Alibaba's market valuation has experienced a significant downtrend and hit historic lows during the last 12 months. Interestingly, a few funds are rapidly accumulating Alibaba against the trend. Although Appaloosa, Third Point, and Segantii Capital have different investment strategies, they have common rationales for investing in the stock, while others jump ship.</p><p>Appaloosa is known for its opportunistic investment approach, seeking undervalued assets and turning around distressed companies. It invested significantly in Alibaba, constituting 7% of its portfolio. Their average purchase price was $87.74 per share. In the second quarter of 2023, Appaloosa dramatically increased its shares by 4375.0%, equivalent to an addition of 4.38 million shares. They hold 4.48 million shares with a total valuation of $421 million.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/53de88dfd22f45d528cd57b086b84fce\" alt=\"Appaloosa BABA trades (stockcircle.com)\" title=\"Appaloosa BABA trades (stockcircle.com)\" tg-width=\"1205\" tg-height=\"302\"/><span>Appaloosa BABA trades (stockcircle.com)</span></p><p>Third Point employs a value investing strategy, seeking companies with solid growth prospects and catalysts for positive change. Its portfolio allocation to Alibaba stands at around 4.0%. Their shares were procured at an average price of $93.21. In Q2 2023, Third Point significantly expanded its stake by 122.4%, corresponding to a gain of 1.62 million shares. Presently, they retain 2.95 million shares, amounting to a total holding value of $277 million.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/f4928a6665eadedaf77dcb4ccb0ee872\" alt=\"Third Point BABA Trades (stockcircle.com)\" title=\"Third Point BABA Trades (stockcircle.com)\" tg-width=\"1206\" tg-height=\"302\"/><span>Third Point BABA Trades (stockcircle.com)</span></p><p>Segantii Capital is known for quantitative strategies incorporating data-driven analysis and market anomalies. Its investment portfolio features a substantial 9.3% allocation to Alibaba. Their initial purchase of shares was made at an average price of $92.46. In the second quarter of 2023, Segantii Capital notably increased its stake by 243.08%, adding 1.32 million shares. Their current holdings comprise 1.87 million shares, with a total valuation of $156 million.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/3476042bc896e00ec66c5600e5f06eb3\" alt=\"Segantii Portfolio (hedgefollow.com)\" title=\"Segantii Portfolio (hedgefollow.com)\" tg-width=\"978\" tg-height=\"551\"/><span>Segantii Portfolio (hedgefollow.com)</span></p><p>During Q2 2023, Alibaba's stock hovered at a decade low and tested critical support near ~$75. Most importantly, Alibaba has entered a new accumulation phase during the quarter, serving as one of the ideal positions to build a long position. These funds' recent long positions drag their average buy price near the critical support level of ~$75, offering an optimum risk-reward ratio for these funds.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/e7f7ee4760a77d15c0c858fc43c31b34\" alt=\"tradingview.com\" title=\"tradingview.com\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"277\"/><span>tradingview.com</span></p><h2 id=\"id_3365628084\">Takeaway</h2><p>China's stock market is navigating turbulent waters, influenced by many domestic and international factors, from a shaky property market to geopolitical upheavals. As a significant player in China's tech arena, Alibaba finds itself at the crossroads of these challenges, shaped by the broader macroeconomic environment and specific internal dynamics. Notwithstanding these complexities, recent signals from China's leadership bode well for a potentially more stable future.</p><p>Editor's Note: This article discusses one or more securities that do not trade on a major U.S. exchange.

Adding to this, Morning Consult's index indicates that while the consumer sentiment gains of the previous month were mostly retained in September, there was a slight dip.For Alibaba, these indicators hold significant implications. As a behemoth in China's e-commerce space, Alibaba's fortunes are closely tied to consumer confidence. The positive trends in shopping mall activity suggest a favorable environment for retail giants. If these trends hold, Alibaba could witness a considerable boost in its e-commerce and retail sectors.SpaceKnowFurther indicators of China's economic health come from broader economic metrics. The World Economics' Sales Growth Index and the Emerging Industries PMI suggest an economic momentum building up. Predictions from Goldman Sachs Group also align with this narrative, indicating a potential expansion in output for September. Larry Hu of Macquarie Group further reinforces the optimism, identifying three significant tailwinds supporting China's economic recovery: a recent shift in fiscal policy, stabilization in exports, and adjustments in property strategies.However, the market isn't without its challenges. The lingering concerns over the property sector and the observed fluctuations in mall activity necessitate a strategic approach from Alibaba. The company must leverage positive economic indicators while staying agile to navigate potential market pitfalls.Although slower at 3% to 5%, China's growth rate is expected to surge in areas that align with Beijing's priorities, such as technology and green transition industries. The ongoing US-China geopolitical tensions, especially US sanctions limiting China's access to vital technologies, are prompting Beijing to invest more in electric vehicles, semiconductor chips, and computers.Unpacking the Numbers for a Promising UpswingMallari-D'Auria believes that while Alibaba's valuations might not reach their pre-crackdown highs, they can still experience significant growth if consumer spending and confidence increase.In absolute valuation, several key indicators highlight a substantial undervaluation. The forward P/E non-GAAP ratio, compared to the 5-year historical average, reveals an undervaluation of around ~49%. Likewise, the forward enterprise value to sales ratio indicates an undervaluation of ~65% relative to the historical average over the same period.Other essential metrics reinforce this trend: forward enterprise value to EBIT shows a significant undervaluation of ~62%, forward price to sales indicates a sizable undervaluation of ~63%, and forward price to book reflects an undervaluation of ~57%, all in comparison to the 5-year historical averages.Conversely, when assessed in the context of relative valuation measures, the situation becomes more nuanced. The forward P/E Non-GAAP, Enterprise Value to EBIT, and Price to Book ratios indicate undervaluation of ~29%, ~19%, and ~40%, respectively, compared to the sector median. In contrast, other metrics employed earlier indicate overvaluation.Author (seekingalpha.com)Contrarians: Key Hedge Funds Increased BABA StakesIn 2023, the overall trend of hedge funds holding positions in BABA remained relatively stable.

Most importantly, Alibaba has entered a new accumulation phase during the quarter, serving as one of the ideal positions to build a long position. These funds' recent long positions drag their average buy price near the critical support level of ~$75, offering an optimum risk-reward ratio for these funds.tradingview.comTakeawayChina's stock market is navigating turbulent waters, influenced by many domestic and international factors, from a shaky property market to geopolitical upheavals. As a significant player in China's tech arena, Alibaba finds itself at the crossroads of these challenges, shaped by the broader macroeconomic environment and specific internal dynamics.
